Hi Michael,
Hi Caolán,

Stuff in .po files I think basically "take care of themselves", but
maybe Andras can give the right answer for that. I *presume* there's a
form of garbage collection taking place there so that translations of
removed stuff doesn't continue forever.
Yep - the only problem is that there is no link between the code
dropping a string usage, and leaving it around forever to be constantly
translated. It is quite possible that some small %age of our strings are
simply never used & just waste translators time.
I just thought about this a bit ... and hacked up a very quick shell
nasty:
$ for a in `git grep String | grep \.src | grep -e '[RSH]ID_' | \
sed 's/^.*[RSH]ID_/ID_/' | sed 's/[ {=].*$//' | sort | uniq`; \
do echo -n "$a " ; (git grep $a | wc -l); done
Not a perfect guide and of course it could be lots cleaner ;-) As a
finger-in-the-air guide though it's prolly reasonable.
If the count is '2' or lower for hits - then (quite probably) the
string is either unused - or it is one of those gross cases Caolan
pointed out (which probably need identifying and strangling carefully
anyway). So eg.
ID_BEZIER_TOOLBOX 11
ID_BIB_STR_FIELDSELECTION 2
ID_BIB_STR_FRAME_TITLE 3
ID_BIB_STR_TABWIN_PREFIX 2
ID_BIB_STR_FIELDSELECTION and ID_BIB_STR_TABWIN_PREFIX bear some
further investigation. Given that RID_BIB_STRING and RID_BIB_START are
not mentioned in arithmetic outside the .hrc file - I suspect we could
happily loose these (eg.)
If someone is looking for cleanups - those sound like they might be a
fruitful place to start :-) are you interested Thomas - or should I file
an easy-hack ?
HTH !
Michael.
